QuickFix how to not send resend request?


I need to know how we can restrict sending a "Resend Request". I'm copying the logs below. It appears that the "Resend Request" is being send from QuickFixEngine dll since we have not written any code for initiating a resend request. Please help me to solve how restrict a resend request. Also it appears that the MsgSeqNum is in correct order. Your help will be appreciated greatly.

Solution

  • Usually, you will get a resend request when reconnecting after a disconnect. It is important to make sure that you haven't missed any messages.

    If you want to avoid it, you need to edit the quickfix config and set ResetOnLogon Logoff and disconnect to Y. That way it will not try to resend messages each time it disconnects.

    I don't think this is a particularly good idea. You could miss messages. Why is the resend request a problem for you?
